✔ Not all chemicals used to clean out drains or to unblock drains are safe. Some can do serious pipe damage either by reacting unusually or by melting pipes. Some chemicals can also burn your skin if not careful.
✔ If you have a cast iron pipe system, more frequent cleaning or hydro flushing is recommended than for any plastic-style piping. We recommend asking your Pro for more details.
